For more information please email [email protected]The Institute of Classical Architecture & Art (ICAA) is pleased to announce the next event in the Breakfast & Books series, in partnership with the Rizzoli Bookstore. Once again, the Rizzoli Bookstore will welcome ICAA members and guests before store hours on Wednesday, February 12, to hear from Charles Sadler, who will be discussing Carol McMichael Reese's book Longue Vue House and Gardens.
Over the course of two decades, Charles King Sadler has developed a practice for the care and restoration of landscapes that has resulted in his being sought after for work on properties across North America and consulted by top European landscape practices.
Charles began his career as a freelance illustrator, with a degree from the Rochester Institute of Technology, he applied his artistic talent to newspaper illustration for publications such as the Los Angeles Times and New York Times. Charles returned to school, SUNY-ESF on the campus of Syracuse University, to pursue master’s studies in Landscape Architecture, and he started his own design firm in order to apply his philosophy of horticultural care within the design aesthetic.
Charles has since gone on to work specifically on the training, care and restoration of landscapes on estates from Greenwich, Connecticut, to Toronto, Ontario, to San Antonio, Texas.
Light refreshments will be available before the presentation, and there will be opportunity to purchase books afterwards.
Advance registration is required. Doors open at 9:00 AM.
Presented as part of the Bunny Mellon Curricula at the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art. The ICAA is very grateful to the Gerard B. Lambert Foundation for its generous support of this program, along with the Curricula's Lead Co-Sponsor Edmund D. Hollander Landscape Architecture Design and Continuing Education and Public Programs Co-Sponsor Charlotte Moss.
